88 crx b swap
 

i have a 88 crx and i am getting a ls swap for it and some people have told me both ways that the shift linkage from a da will and wont work i want to know if it will or if it wont thanks for any info

Re: 88 crx b swap
 

only a bseries crx will work or you can cut the da/ef's and reweld them together.

ok thanks

Re: 88 crx b swap
 

I think you can find that linkage as a new part from one of the engine mount companies. I can't remember where I saw those..

Bingo, Hasport and Avid makes a linkage set. both are Nice linkages.:cool:

Re: 88 crx b swap
 

I would drop the cash on the Hasport or Avid piece vs making one work. Put on in my brothers CRX back in the day and he never had one problem with the linkage (Hasport).

this is what i would do.

Re: 88 crx b swap
 

ive done this as well, but im careful what i suggest on here, just for the fact we dont know how mechanically inclined some of the members on here are(He IS asking about a completely BOLT IN swap here). If he cuts them, and makes the linkage too long, that puts the shifter too close to the center console, too short and its too far back in the opening in the floor. Best and trouble free way to do it is a hasport or avid linkage. No crappy welds that you worry about breaking, and shifter position is exactly where it needs to be. My .02, GL on the swap.:cool:

ok thanks to all for the help im going to get the hasport ones thanks again

Re: 88 crx b swap
 

i would suggest buying one for a b series in a crx... if ur gnna spend the money on doin a swap spend the money and do it right the first time.. do u really want to take a chance of bein stranded somewhere where ur shit breaks down and have to pay a tow bill...
